Wrap Artist | Agathe Snow

The six-foot wreath the artist Agathe Snow unveiled at the Fireplace Project in East Hampton, N.Y., this weekend looks like an overgrown charm bracelet. Adorned with crisply wrapped presents, party favors and Christmas tree ornaments, the piece is indeed a celebration of sorts, “but only if you know what to do with the gifts New York City has to offer,” Snow explains. It was recycled from an installation Snow showed last year at the Sculpture Center in Long Island City, Queens, which was intended at the time to start a conversation with “the boys of my generation,” in particular Terence Koh, Banks Violette and her ex-husband, the late Dash Snow.
